Review Summary for 217 East 59 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenants at 217 East 59th Street praise the great location and neighborhood. However, they express dissatisfaction with poor cleanliness, lack of repairs, and unresponsive property management leading to pest issues and heating problems. Residents highlight the need for immediate repairs, better upkeep, and enhanced security measures.
